My experience with Oriflame The One matte Lipstick Nutty Plum:

Packaging:

The Matte Lipstick range has a grey-ish plum color, satin finished fat round lipstick case, that comes in a similar cover. All the important information are provided on the cover itself. The lipstick cap is sturdy and locks in properly every time. I liked the packaging, it's simple, travel friendly and in sync with other products from The One makeup range.

Fragrance:

This lipstick has mildly fragrance with sweet notes. Nothing that will bother anyone with sensitive nose and it later fades off completely.

Color & Texture:

Nutty Plum shade from the matte lipstick range is a light-medium coffee color with a slight plum undertone...I can see why they have named it Nutty Plum. The shade is pretty gorgeous and will be a great pick for day wear or office wear. I am sure it'll be liked by everyone who prefers more muted shades for work, otherwise too it is a nice everyday shade. I always recommend to team up such shades with smoky eye makeup..they go hand in hand! It can be a right kind of Nude for many...so if you still are looking for that..your kind of perfect nude.. you have got to try this! The shade is very universal, will be suitable for all skin tone.

The lipstick has a cream texture, not overly though. It applies evenly on the lips, but you need to drag it a little bit. The formula is not exactly matte, I'll call it moisture matte. The lipstick is moisturizing because of the cream texture and feels comfortable on lips. It does not get cake-y even after 2-3 coats :)

Pigmentation & Finish:

Nutty Plum scores high when it comes to color payoff as the lipstick delivers very good pigmentation in one swipe. You need two coats for a full coverage, opaque color. Even it can be a great pick for sporting no makeup look, just dab the lipstick gently on lips for that perfectly made up no makeup look ;)
Nutty Plum shade from the matte lipstick range gives a kind of moist matte finish to the lips.. but later on with all the food and drinks..it becomes matte but still does not feels dry at all.

Wear Time:

The lipstick has a decent wear time. It survived small snack sessions and a few glass of water and faded very slightly from the inner part of lips after two hour or so. It stayed on my lips for say 3-3.5 hour after this i needed to retouch.

Cons:

1. You have to sightly drag the lipstick during application

Overall Rate: 4.9/5

Verdict: Oriflame The One Matte Lipstick Nutty Plum is a light-medium coffee color with slightly plum undertone. This shade would be a perfect pick for office wear or day wear as this is a muted shade. It's a Universal shade that will suit all skintone. I loved the color payoff of this shade! I think it's lovely everyday shade, available at decent pricing! I definitely recommend this shade to the office goers...Everyone actually, if you like muted lipstick shades!
